< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
عِنْدَ خُرُوجِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ مِصْرَ، وَآلِ يَعْقُوبَ مِنْ بَيْنِ شَعْبٍ غَرِيبِ اللِّسَانِ.١
2 Judah was his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
صَارَ يَهُوذَا هَيْكَلاً مُقَدَّساً لَهُ، وَإِسْرَائِيلُ مَقَرَّ سُلْطَانِهِ.٢
3 The sea saw it and fled, the Jordan turned back;
رَأَى الْبَحْرُ الأَحْمَرُ ذَلِكَ فَهَرَبَ، وَتَرَاجَعَ نَهْرُ الأُرْدُنِّ إِلَى الْوَرَاءِ.٣
4 The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.
قَفَزَتِ الْجِبَالُ كَأَنَّهَا كِبَاشٌ، وَالتِّلالُ كَأَنَّهَا حُمْلانٌ.٤
5 What ailed thee, thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou turnedst back?
مَالَكَ يَا بَحْرُ قَدْ هَرَبْتَ، وَيَا أُرْدُنُّ قَدْ رَجَعْتَ إِلَى الْوَرَاءِ؟٥
6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams? ye hills, like lambs?
مَالَكِ يَا جِبَالُ تَقْفِزِينَ كَالْكِبَاشِ، وَيَا تِلالُ كَالْحُمْلانِ؟٦
7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
تَزَلْزَلِي يَا أَرْضُ فِي حَضْرَةِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ.٧
8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
الَّذِي حَوَّلَ الصَّخْرَةَ إِلَى جَدَاوِلَ، وَالصَّوَّانَ إِلَى يَنَابِيعِ مِيَاهٍ.٨
